I am developing a plugin for the WordPress repository.

I'm going to use redux for the settings.

redux is a wordpress option managment plugin. https://wordpress.org/plugins/redux-framework/

But I do not want to install redux as a user plugin. And I want it to be part of the core of my plugin.

Can I publish the plugin to the repository?

    I'm a little confused, Redux is not a plugin, it's a javascript library, can you clarify? Keep in mind that only the .org plugin reviewers can give you a 100% certain answer on this though they too may struggle to understand, use the Edit link to update your question using different words so that your meaning is clearer

If you try to bundle a copy of another plugin inside your plugin it will be rejected. It would be better to disable your plugins functionality and throw up a prompt indicating that the redux framework plugin needs to be installed.

Even then this may not be allowed as your plugin sounds more like an add-on than a standalone plugin, they may see this as a problem.

To get a 100% certain answer though on what you should do instead, you will need to ask the plugin reviewers directly, rather than on this stack.
